This should open the modem:
open driver "/dev/cu.modem" for binary update
The driver seems to insert a 3 second delay for me in the open.

If your device has a serial view in addition to the HID view, then you
should see it in either driverNames() or deviceNames(). I have seen
some problems with serial if you can get a serial driver set up for the
device, but there is a chance you can avoid them. (By serial, I mean
something that looks like an RS-232 driver, I don't mean the USB
itself.)
I just tried deviceNames() on Panther. It returns the built-in modem
entry 3 times. Weird. (I'll check it out.) The Revolution
driverNames() does not return anything for the built-in modem.

There's nothing in the control panel or someplace to make the device
look like a mouse?
I'm running out of ideas. If it was me, I'd be thinking of making an
external.
